SS930

Marine Engines Inc. is just the suplier... I believe.

So, you all think another $5000 bucks would make this motor drop in ready to run?

SS930

I think your number is on the high side. I can't imagine it would take an more than $5k, that's for sure.

Intake
carb
ignition system
exhaust...

Rough estimate...lets see

bell housing ....$150
coupler..... $250
oil cooler.... $300
alternator.... $200
raw water pump... $200
power steering pump... $200
oil filter and bracket... $150
carb 1050... $700
valve covers aluminum $200
hoses and fittings (non Braided) 150
senders $100
crossover $125
therm housing $75
ignition $700 MSD
starter $200
labor to dress approx 16 hours @ 75 = $1,200
Gen VI block ...need electric Fuel pump & reg. $200.00

$5,000.00 should do it

am i forgetting anything???

BRUCE SEROFF

exhaust....I assumed you already had that

CMI $3,000

Sweet! Could any shop do the final assembly work or should this be taken to someone like for instance Teague Marine?

Dude Bruce, Whoa, you know your s h i t !
I only know what half that stuff is!

So running the numbers we have a 725hp non-blower motor for around 16,000. Hypothetically, you could whipple/pro-charge it for another 7,000 and have a 1000 hp motor for 23,000.

hhhhmmmmm.

So, who is going to be first to buy one of these things? I'm not walking the plank first!

BRUCE SEROFF

Dont forget shipping..Probably about 300.00

Ive blown enuff motors to know what they cost to replace

I dont think you'de be able to whipple or procharge. the compression ratio is probably too high. I would assume somewhere around 9.5:1

And yes..any decent HP marine mechanic can dress the motor for you. But I would see if the motor builder can quote you on a complete drop in package.

Thanks Bruce!

looks like they may be re-manufactured blocks...but still looks like a good deal because of warranty

BRUCE SEROFF

I think the 572s are new blocks. if you requested a new block, it should only add about 500 to 750 to that number. A brand new bare block is around $1,900 before honing and decking
